4.1 Before starting steam

Danger of injury! Check appliance and power cord beforeeach use. A damaged appliance must never be used. ATTENTION: Before starting cleaning, check whether the surface to becleaned is suitable for steam cleaning. Always follow thecleaning recommendations of the material manufactur-ers. The steam mop is definitely not suitable for use onuncoated wooden floors, soft plastics, and high-qualityfurnishings. Cold glass surfaces can shatter as a result ofheat shock. ATTENTION: Operate the device only with the water tank filled. Ensurethat the water level in the water tank is always above theMIN mark. Although the appliance is fitted with overheat-ing protection, running it without water would shorten theappliance’s service life. NOTE: The steam mop has overheating protection. It will switchoff automatically if overheated (e. g. due to an emptywater tank). If this happens, pull the mains plug and refill the water tank ZChapter 3.1, “Filling the water tank”. Wait for about 45 minutes. Once the steam mop hascooled down you can switch it on again. NOTE: It is recommended to first sweep or vacuum-clean floorsto remove loose dirt before using the steam cleaner onthem. NOTE: Provide adequate ventilation during and after your clean-ing work.42 4 Steam cleaning

6.1 Checking/replacing the

water filter cartridge There is always a small quantity of lime in your home’s tapwater. For this reason we have installed a water filter car-tridge which is designed to remove the lime particles beforethe water runs through the appliance. Check the water filter cartridge (Fig. 23) every time you fill the water tank, ZChapter 3.1, “Filling the water tank”. When first supplied, the filter medium on the inside ofthe cartridge is a very light colour (Fig. 23/A). If when youcheck it you discover that the filter medium on the inside ofthe cartridge has significantly changed colour (Fig. 23/B)compared to its supply state or less steam is emitted, re-place the cartridge as follows:1. Switch off the device, put it into the neutral position and pull the plug from the socket, ZChapter 4.6, “Putting the device into the neutral position”.

2. Remove the water tank, ZChapter 3.1, “Filling the water

tank”.3. Check the colour of the cartridge. If the inside of the car-tridge has changed colour considerably compared tothe supply state (Fig. 23/B), the cartridge has to be re-placed.4. If the water filter cartridge has to be replaced, pull it upand out of the console powerfully (Fig. 24).5. Then replace the water filter cartridge with a new one(order no.: ZChapter 7.2, “Accessories and spareparts”).6. Push the new cartridge powerfully back into the console(Fig. 25).

7. Put the water tank back on, ZChapter 3.1, “Filling the

water tank”).8. Make sure that both the elements are securely fastenedto each other.NOTE:You can dispose of the worn-out water filter cartridgewith your household waste.

6.2 Cleaning the housing

Only clean the outside of the housing using a slightly damp cloth.

Danger of injury! Before you clean the appliance, switch off the appliance and unplug the mains plug, ZChapter 4.6, “Putting the device into the neutral position”. ATTENTION: Do not use cleaning or scouring agents or alcohol, as these might damage the appliance's housing.49 7 Troubleshooting
